After their much heralded debut on the label with last year’s Music Mission EP, Italian collective Babe Roots returns to V.I.V.E.K’s System Music with a brand new four track project entitled Through We EP.

The Torino-based producers have risen to prominence over the last half decade having crafted an authentic, sub-heavy dubwise sound which has been cut and pressed on labels such as ZamZam Sounds, Echocord & more.

This new project is unquestionably an extension on that sound and is delivered with exceptional execution. We open with title track Through We, an utterly immersive Dub Techno slice which glides and steps with maximum finesse, layered perfectly with the powerful vocals of Joseph Lalibela.

Next up comes System which picks up the tempo and features Bristol-based mic-man Rider Shafique whose profound voice and lyricisation rides the powerful stepping riddim which bounces out of the speakers in full force.

Flip the record and find It A Come, fully equipped with earth-shattering low-end, resonating reverberations and the deeply haunting vocals of Wayne & Galas, which is then finished perfectly with a profoundly stripped back ambient rework of the same track.

SYSTM044 BUKKHA

ZamZam 95 is a link with the enigmatic French producer Hiss Is Bliss. We’ve been fans since the very first drop on their 777Hz label and these two sides drive straight to the heart of the dub techno galaxy.

Little is known about Hiss Is Bliss beyond the fact that they hail from France, are steeped in esotericism, and create tunes as masterfully grounded in roots reggae as they are in techno and related strands of electronic music. Their releases are utterly free of hype, beautifully crafted 10” vinyl plates that let the singers and tracks speak for themselves. 

At the risk of being cheeky, “Nope” is absolute dub techno bliss. The 808 kick propels the track relentlessly forward, saturated washes of color streak the night sky, while syncopated hi hats and warm, soulful chords bring life- dare we say funk- to a style too often stiff and clinical, too in thrall to the past to truly step forward. Matching Hiss is Bliss in mystery, Ras Lys’ vocal brings a Dread perspective on music and the sometimes shady business of music, a grounded contrast to the deep inner space explored by the tune itself. The B-side version “Abbadia” splits musical atoms through the desk, focusing squarely on the stripped 4/4 elements and gloriously distorted pads that echo and cycle like tides in a darkly shimmering sea. 

Strictly limited to 800 copies for the world. No digital, no repress. Art, design & screen print by Polygon Press. Mastered by Sam at Precise, pressed at Cascade Record Pressing. Shipping late May, 2024.

Our Soundcloud clips are recorded straight from the vinyl with no additional mastering so you know exactly what you're getting.
